Bloodless Carnage | |
| Zorro (1975) / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: For a movie with plenty of sword battles and mooks getting stabbed and sliced, there's barely any blood visible throughout the action scenes. | |

| Zorro (1975) / int_17a606bd | comment |
Master Swordsman: Zorro and Huerta are both experts and devils when it comes to sword-fighting. Suitably enough, the movie climaxes with their climatic, one-on-one battle. | |

Diagonal Cut | |
| Zorro (1975) / int_2ad2a2c8 | comment |
Diagonal Cut: Early on, Huerta demonstrates the sharpness of his blade this way. He swipes his sword, then drops it on the table, and the candles fall down cut across. Near the end Zorro outdoes him: he waves his sword and taps on the floor — all candles, but one, fall cut. He taps again, and that candle falls, cut lengthwise. | |

Thou Shalt Not Kill | |
| Zorro (1975) / int_2f94135c | comment |
Thou Shalt Not Kill: Miguel's dying wish to Diego, right before passing his mantle as governor to his friend, is that "the new governor will never kill". Diego fulfills the promise long enough until he eventually realize against Colonel Huerta, Violence is the Only Option. | |

Destination Defenestration | |
| Zorro (1975) / int_32976084 | comment |
Destination Defenestration: When the final battle between Zorro and Huerta reaches the church's bell tower, Huerta tries to force Zorro into falling to his death. Zorro manages to grab on a hanging rope instead, and ends up swinging until he crashes through the tower's windows. Cue Huerta triumphantly declaring he killed Zorro... until Zorro suddenly re-emerges on the church's roof. | |

Disney Villain Death | |
| Zorro (1975) / int_5bdcc85a | comment |
Disney Villain Death: For the two main baddies. Sergeant Garcia met his maker after accidentally falling down a shaft in the final battle. The audience didn't see the impact or the aftermath, just the sound of him falling and a thud. Colonel Huerta gets fatally stabbed by Zorro and falls off the church's tower. Again, no gore or blood. | |

Big Bad | |

Big Bad: Colonel Huerta is the newly-appointed military and civil governor of Nueva Aragón who enforced a cruel, ruthless military rule on the town, gleefully silencing everyone who speaks against him and having innocent citizens punished by being thrown into prisons or labor camps for attempting to speak the truth. | |

Horseback Heroism: Diego is a skilled horse rider and spends much of the movie on horseback, even before he becomes Zorro. The film's opening credits are in fact imposed right over a scene of Diego riding over the plains of the New World. | |

I Have You Now, My Pretty: Colonel Huerta reveals that he isn't the righteous man he initially seems, when he attempts to seduce Carmen, the wife of a recently-deceased governor, while she is alone, and subsequently forces himself on her when she refused. Zorro's timely intervention prevents Huerta from getting any further. | |

Villainous Glutton: Sergeant Garcia, Huerta's Fat Bastard of a subordinate, frequently indulges in feasts, when most of the citizens of Nueva Aragón barely had any food. Best exemplified in a scene where he wolves down a huge, three-layer sandwich, in front of three starving child servants. | |
